Hygienists and healthcare providers actively seek ways to create barriers against the spread of microorganisms. The solution is SANAFOR®, offering durable, built-in protection against bacteria, fungi, molds and yeasts, and actively controlling organisms that may try to establish themselves in or on your treated product.

Odors from textiles and footwear are caused by bacteria, while staining is usually the result of fungi and mold. SANAFOR® offers long-lasting protection against both, resulting in products that are fresher for longer. And thanks to its low solubility in water, SANAFOR® does not easily come out of treated products.

The use of antimicrobials in food contact materials is a rapidly developing technology, and represents one of the strategies for reducing the growth of bacteria and fungi (molds) on food contact surfaces. SANAFOR® is US-EPA and FDA approved for food contact uses such as food processing equipment, conveyor belts, utensils and storage containers. Approvals for additional food contact uses are anticipated.

Micro-organisms are all around us. We seek to protect ourselves from exposure, for example, by using antibacterial soaps and wipes or by putting bleach in our laundry water to kill the bacteria that cause stains and odors. SANAFOR® antimicrobial technology offers safe and effective built-in protection for plastics and textiles, creating a feeling of cleanliness and well-being. The use of antimicrobials in items found in our homes is already widely accepted, protecting us from fungi, molds and odors caused by bacteria.

Just as we want to be protected from unpleasant odors and moldy surfaces at home, we also want that same sense of cleanliness when traveling. Whether you are a manufacturer of automobiles, non-food film or ventilation pipes, SANAFOR® can be used to prevent odors caused by bacteria, protect against discoloration, staining or disfiguring caused by fungi, or avoid the growth of algae on surfaces. SANAFOR® incorporates durable microbial protection, adding value to your products.
